  1. Glad to see you're doing better. When my grandmother had her cataracts removed at 99 (!), she said the difference was remarkable. Good foil work, too. Don't push yourself too hard and let your eye heal completely. Charlie Larkin
  2. Oooh....that gray looks SO right! Charlie Larkin
  3. Red for the convertible is a nice choice. The interior combination sounds intriguing. http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Edsel/1960_Edsel/1960_Edsel_Brochure/1960%20Edsel-11.html http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Edsel/1960_Edsel/1960_Edsel_Brochure/1960%20Edsel-07.html The woody also sounds like it'll be a very pretty car. Charlie Larkin
  4. The girls were cute. Creative video. Charlie Larkin
  5. Charcoal with the dark red interior and black vinyl landau top would be a gorgeous car, Dan. Charlie Larkin
  6. Very nice rebuild, Dan. It still looks good. Charlie Larkin
  7. It'll buff out... Great job. Charlie Larkin
  8. The blue and gray are a nice combination. Nicely done. Charlie Larkin
  9. I like it. Poor thing could use a new pair of fenders. Great use of miscellaneous leftovers, Kerry. Charlie Larkin
  10. Incredible. The photography especially is well-done. Your models are works of art. We're very fortunate you share them here. Charlie Larkin
  11. Beautiful job, Tom. The wood and interior are especially nicely done. Charlie Larkin
  12. Sharp machine. I'd build a model of that. Charlie Larkin
  13. After lots of pulling hair out, we finally determined the computer in my car has been causing all the problems I've had- I phrase this because it kept testing as good. The Chevy dealer managed to figure it out. The optical sensor on the distributor was also malfunctioning- the distributor itself is okay. We're not sure if the sensor shorted the computer or the computer and sensor died separately at the same time- although I do wonder how the car would run at all if that sensor was shot. Now....they seem to be running the clock and inflating my bill! Not a happy camper right now. All I can say is my car had better run right after this. Charlie Larkin
  14. Very nice, Drew. Charlie Larkin
  15. So, how many nights on the couch did that win you? The build will look good. Take your time and make sure you're happy with it. Everything else is window-dressing. Charlie Larkin (Still more-or-less happily a bachelor)
  16. The Charger came out nicely. That Chevy will be just fine when it's finished. Candy-apple red will be a good choice for it. Keep sharing, Dale. We really like seeing the kids' stuff here. Charlie Larkin
  17. It's an improvement over the new Cherokee... I'm not sure if I like it or not, but it's moving in the right direction. Charlie Larkin
  18. I do live in Marlborough, Ben. I actually lived down your way for about 3-1/4 years (New Bedford) before moving back home. Did you go to MHS? Class of '93 here. If you're free tonight- or any third Wednesday, MassCar meets in Canton now at the Porter & Chester Institute on Campanelli Dr., next to the auto shop. That's located right off of 139 in Stoughton. if coming up from Brockton on Rt. 27 or Turnpike St., turn left at the goofy intersection at Cumberland Farms and the townhouse-style office building is (Turnpike St.) https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Porter+%26+Chester+Institute%E2%80%93+Canton,+MA,+Campanelli+Circle,+Canton,+MA&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=42.162688,-71.070943&spn=0.008398,0.021136&sll=42.160445,-71.079826&sspn=0.016797,0.042272&oq=Porter+a&hq=Porter+%26+Chester+Institute%E2%80%93+Canton,+MA,&hnear=Campanelli+Cir,+Canton,+Massachusetts+02021&t=m&z=16 Meetings start about 7:00.
  19. Not a bad use for an early Kia... Charlie Larkin
  20. Black/red is good. Mine is going to be Wedgewood Blue with a blue interior. Charlie Larkin
  21. Good to see you back, Jim. Looking forward to seeing this. Charlie Larkin
  22. Color looks good on it, I might've added some kind of contrast, though, to break it up a little. Nice build quality overall. Charlie Larkin
  23. Looks good, Dan. Charlie Larkin
  24. That's AWFUL! I wish I came up with it. Charlie Larkin
  25. We won't even hit 30 today. Instead of green all over- it's white, dirty white, dirty ice and patches of brown.... Happy St. Patrick's Day. Charlie Larkin
